Heat Transfer Characteristics of High Crossflow Impingement Channels: Effect of Number of Holes

Peter Ott, Alexandros Terzis, Santiago Llucià

In modern turbine airfoils, narrow impingement cooling channels can be formed in a double-wall configuration. In these wall-integrated cooling cavities, the generated crossflow is one of the most important design factors, and hence, the number of impingeme ...
